    Talk to your Doctor SERIOUSLY..........Tell him/her that you are planing to use anabolic steroids , they will be better suited for this question.

    Unless Doc M will be willing to give you some advise.

    On a side note, I do not think it is a very good idea.

    Bro I would speak with my Doc if I were you - on a side note mixing AS and anti- depressants is probably not a good idea - just my .02

    Diagnosed depression and steroids don't mix, I wouldn't touch them.. Prohormones are garbage IMO.. Just eat and train hard.. Is there a cure for depression, I would think about shooting the steroids when you are cured, if thats possible..

    See a doctor, they could help much more then we could. But expect the doctor you visit to bash steroids and steroid users. He will do everything in his power to convince you that anabolic steroids are bad/wrong.

    Keep and open mind though. In a way this is a life or death issue because I have family members who are bipolar and take anti-depressants and have tried to kill themselves. Depression is no joke.

    Actually testosterone has been used successfully to treat depression. You might want to consider getting some blood work done and see if low endogenous testosterone levels are the root to your current condition. Depending on your age and blood work - you may qualify for HRT...

    Like Money Boss Hustla said - coming off Deca can be a little harder than others... a simpler place to start is with good old testosterone enanthate only...

    There was just a story on CBS 60 minutes at 7 where a highschool senior hung himself. And was taking gear. Saying he was all depressed and such.
    Crazy!

    i dont see a problem with it. AS an SSRI's alter moods in completely different ways. Just keep this in mind while you're on them: you know what you mood is normaly, if it starts to sway its because of the AS...realize it and deal with it accordingly.

    Basically it's up to you though, if you feel you can handle the mood swings and not do anything stupid....give it a go. If you have an inability to deal with changes in mood correctly steer away until you get your condition under control.

    I would stick to one compound too...

    i forgot who asked, but there is no cure for depression. In fact we really dont know anything about depression besides the fact that when we increase serotonin levels people become happier...No one really knows the etiology or the long term effects of these SSRI's yet....****, Prozac just went off patent a few years back....


    FYI....same deal for prohormones...
